We regret to inform you of the passing of Nili Adler, the wife of Rabbi Moshe Adler of Beth El-The Heights Synagogue in Cleveland Heights, devoted her life to teaching people Hebrew and the importance of Hebrew education. After a long battle with an illness, Adler died on Feb. 25. She was 71. “She was extremely passionate about making sure the Hebrew language didn’t dissipate and die out,” said Sheryl Hirsh, the assistant director of Jewish Lifelong Learning of the Siegal Lifelong Learning Program at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, who worked with Adler for 15 years.
